Interesting @planet imagery showing multiple impacts on Ozerne air base #Ukraine 🇺🇦

Notable at least two strikes that apparently failed to target the runaway.
I have identified at least two further impacts points at Ozerne air base #Ukraine 🇺🇦 ImageImageImage
@Cen4infoRes Despite questionable accuracy of #Russia 🇷🇺strikes against Ozerne air base, it seem one impact may have resulted in destruction of a #Ukraine 🇺🇦 Air Force Su-27 Flanker
ImageImage
This assessment would also correlate with unverified images reportedly showing a destroyed Su-27 Flanker at Ozerne air base #Ukraine🇺🇦
ImageImage
Also captured by @planet on 27 Feb is an apparent runway excursion by an Su-27 Flanker at Ozerne air base #Ukraine🇺🇦 - extent of damage unclear. ImageImage

North Korea🇰🇵 launched "multiple ballistic missile" from Pyongyang's Sunan area.

"around 10 short-range ballistic missiles" according to ROK JCS
en.yna.co.kr/view/AEN202405…
KN-25 600mm guided MRLS rather than a 'traditional' SRBM is most likely candidate given trajectory (less depressed than norm 50km apogee given approaching max range) and volume of projectiles.

North Korea claim test of "Baasuri-6" AShM

Although claimed as new by North Korea unclear how "Baasuri-6" differs from AShM first shown tested in 2017, aside from the octuple launcher first shown on parade in 2020

North Korea conducts a further suspected ballistic missile launch

Depressed and "irregular trajectory" at this range could indicate KN-23 series, though previous max demonstrated range had been ~690km.

I would also not rule out a resumption of testing relating to claimed hypersonic manoeuvrable vehicles

"Tongchang-ri area" implies a Sohae Satellite Launching Station launch site

Though static engine tests for military ballistic missiles continue to be conduct here, a test launch of an offensive ballistic missile from this site would be something new.

A truly epic capture by @Maxar potentially showing the moment #NorthKorea 🇰🇵 revealed a suspected new solid fuel ICBM system at the parade!!!
Following the apparent Hwasong-17 ICBM pairs are four unidentified but apparently similarly sized canisterised systems
